As this happened again, and I paid more attention to the time, it seems that the sound doesn't halt exactly at midnight, but rather during the first minute of Monday.
All happenings of this but were between 00:00:00 and 00:00:59 so far -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1855626 Title: All sound halts for one minute at midnight on Mondays Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Every week, on Monday at 00:00 all sound halts until the clock turns to 00:01. (Note as I often get confused with midnight/midday notations, I am referring to the minute after Sunday 23:59). When this happened the rhythmbox process had been running for more than a day, and I do not know if this happens if rhythmbox was launched on Sunday. I can confirm at the very least that this happened twice when the process was started on the previous Wednesday, and once on the previous Friday at 12:12. This bug happened to me many more times, but I did not check the process' information those times. The song timer stops during this minute. The last time this happened the song skipped a minute when it resumed, but from what I remember of the previous times the song had started off where it stopped (I could remember wrong though). The only difference I can think of between the last occurrence and the previous ones would be that I did not use any buttons this time around. What I expected to happen: The current song keeps playing What happened instead: The song halted for one minute Steps to reproduce: #1 Open Rhythmbox (if possible not on Sunday) #2 Wait for Sunday #3 Start listening to music before Sunday 23:59:59 #4 Wait for Monday 00:00 while music is still playing The song will stop until 00:01 ``` $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS Release: 18.04 $ apt-cache policy rhythmbox rhythmbox: Installed: 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.4.2-4ubuntu1 500 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ``` Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-6600U CPU @ 2.60GHz × 4 GNOME: 3.28.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1855626/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
